    Episode 12: Joe Williams: Why Mental Health Funding Is Failing & What Indigenous Wisdom Teaches Us About Real Healing

    Joe Williams is a proud Wiradjuri/Wolgalu man, former NRL footballer and world-champion boxer who has transformed lived experience, trauma recovery, and culture into purpose. After a successful career with the South Sydney Rabbitohs, Penrith Panthers and Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs - and later becoming a two-time WBF World Champion - Joe faced his toughest battles away from sport, living with Bipolar Disorder, suicidal ideation, and the impacts of trauma. Following a suicide attempt in 2012, Joe dedicated his life to healing, suicide prevention, and mental wellbeing, grounded in a strong connection to culture, community, and identity. He is the founder of The Enemy Within, delivering trauma-informed wellbeing programs to over 200 communities across Australia and internationally. Joe is an award-winning mental health advocate, author of Defying the Enemy Within, Adjunct Associate Professor at the University of Queensland, and a PhD candidate at the University of Melbourne researching healing through cultural practice. IN THIS POWERFUL CONVERSATION, WE DISCUSS: - The moment he realised "no one's coming to save me" - Why billions in Aboriginal mental health funding aren't saving lives - How colonisation impacts mental health across generations - The difference between being "mentally sick" vs "spiritually sick" - Why your nervous system is the real issue (not your brain chemistry) - Cultural practices that kept Indigenous peoples well for 100,000 years - The fire circle where Aboriginal men cry, laugh, and heal together - How to sit in the "murkiest mud" to find clarity - Why we need to stop treating symptoms and address root causes - What it means to take radical responsibility for your healing Joe brings honesty, cultural strength, and hope to conversations that truly matter. If you've ever felt like traditional mental health approaches weren't working for you, this conversation offers a completely different - and deeply needed - perspective.

    Episode 11: I Had Stage 4 Cancer & Refused to Beg For My Life - Shira Evet

    Shira Evet was told she had single-digit years to live. Stage 4 breast cancer. Spreading to her skin. Bleeding wounds that wouldn't heal. Doctors said she'd be on chemo for life. She looked at them and said: "That's not gonna work for me." This conversation isn't about miracle cures or toxic positivity. It's about radical personal power, getting comfortable on the floor, and what happens when you stop giving yourself away to make everyone else comfortable. If you're a leader or high performer running on empty: The hidden cost of being "the strong one" (and how it almost destroyed her)Why serving people is powerful but saving people is destructiveHow to reclaim your power when you've been giving it away for yearsEnergy management for high performers in crisisWhy driving your own bus is the only sustainable modelIf you're navigating struggle and need real tools: Gut health protocols she maintained through chemoMistletoe therapy and integrative approachesHow she tracked nutrition and maintained strength during treatmentMindset shifts that actually moved the needleHow to protect your energy with boundariesWhy you don't need to fight - you just need to "you" harderShira shares: The moment she realized she missed herself more than anyoneWhy she went to chemo in costumes (theme chemo as a mindset tool)How she put a kettlebell on her floor and DEMANDED 25+ years instead of beggingThe healing tools that actually worked (no BS, just results)How to get comfortable in your own darknessThe difference between fighting cancer and "me-ing harder"She cleared stage 4 cancer by her birthday. Not by fighting it - by being more herself, not less. If you're exhausted from pretending everything's fine, navigating health challenges, or leading from empty - this episode is for you. You're not alone. And healing doesn't have to be perfect. It just has to be yours. CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of cancer, medical treatments, and health challenges.

    Episode 10: Why Your Healing Journey Is Taking So Long (The Truth No One Tells You)

    Most people don’t need fixing. They need internal stability. In this episode of Heal Yourself, Serena Parry is joined by Anthony for a grounded, deeply human conversation about nervous system regulation, emotional responsibility, and why real healing and real leadership start in the body — not the intellect. This episode isn’t about being broken. It’s about learning how to lead yourself — emotionally, mentally, and energetically — so you can move through life with clarity instead of reactivity. Anthony shares insights from his 10–15 year journey through emotional chaos, people-pleasing, avoidance, and repeated life upheavals — and what finally created stability, peace, and self-trust. In this episode, we explore: • Why healing isn’t an intellectual process• How nervous system dysregulation drives burnout, people-pleasing, and avoidance• Why repeated “tower moments” signal misalignment — not failure• The illusion of external stability (roles, income, relationships)• How emotions act as data for better decisions• Why responsibility equals freedom• Practical ways to regulate, respond, and rebuild from an authentic place This episode is for you if:✓ You feel emotionally overwhelmed or mentally busy✓ You’ve tried “doing the work” but still feel unsettled✓ You’re a leader, parent, founder, or high-performer under pressure✓ You want peace without losing your edge 🎧 Follow Heal Yourself for conversations on healing, self-leadership, and embodied success. 📲 Share with someone who’s ready to stop reacting and start responding.

    Episode 9: From Grief to the Golf Course: How Death Saved My Life - Pro Golfer & Clairvoyant Brent German

    "Life is short. You could die tomorrow. So how about you just go and do the things you've always wanted to do?" Brent German is a professional golfer, golf coach, mindset coach, and clairvoyant. But before all of that, he was a 26-year-old who'd just lost his mum and spent two years drinking a bottle of bourbon every night trying to numb the pain. In 1996, when his mum passed, Brent gained over 20kg through emotional eating and drinking. He lost four years of his life to grief. But one conversation with his mum's best friend, one book recommendation, and one decision changed everything. Golf became his healing vehicle. He set one goal: win the club championship for his mum. It took four years of mental preparation, but in 2000, standing on the 18th hole at Tocumwal Golf Course, tears streaming down his face, unable to see through his rain-soaked glasses - he won. That moment became the anchor that saved his life. The same anchor he used to walk on fire at Tony Robbins. In this raw, powerful episode, Brent shares: • The two weeks after his mum died when he drank bourbon every night• Why he knew his sister's passing the moment it happened (three hours away on a golf course)• How strangers showed up with kindness - including a pro at an elite private golf course• The book that changed everything: "How to Win Friends and Influence People"• Why golf is meditation for him (and how to find your version)• The letter-writing exercise that gave him closure after 25 years• How to create emotional anchors using NLP (LIVE demonstration with Serena)• Why getting in motion deletes emotion• His spiritual gifts and the woman he healed in 45 minutes at Tony Robbins• C-A-N-I: Constant And Never-ending Improvement• His upcoming book: "How Death Saved My Life" (March 10, 2026) What makes this episode unique: This is the first LIVE healing demonstration on the podcast. Watch as Brent takes Serena through an NLP anchoring session in real-time - helping her discover her true anchor moment, identify her emotional colour, and create a physical anchor she can use instantly. This episode is for you if: ✓ You're a golfer, athlete, or sports professional dealing with performance anxiety✓ You're navigating grief and loss✓ You're a high-performer who lives in your head and needs to get into your heart✓ You're curious about NLP and practical mindset tools✓ You want to learn emotional anchoring techniques For golfers: Brent works with professional and amateur golfers to overcome mental blocks and performance anxiety.

  6. Episode 8: Told I'd Die at 53 - I'm 66 & Thriving: Medical Intuitive Julie Lewin's Journey from Two Cancers to Complete Healing

    Episode 8: Told I'd Die at 53 - I'm 66 & Thriving: Medical Intuitive Julie Lewin's Journey from Two Cancers to Complete Healing

    "You don't get what you want. You get what you need. And when you surrender - truly surrender - that's when the magic happens." Julie Lewin was given a choice by a clairvoyant at 25: pursue her destiny as a medical intuitive and live an amazing life, or refuse it and die at 53. She chose the path - but it led through unimaginable darkness before the light. In 2000, Julie faced what should have been her final year: two cancer diagnoses seven weeks apart (ovarian and thyroid), six major surgeries, radioactive iodine treatment that left her vomiting non-stop for two weeks, weighing just 49kg, and losing her voice for an entire year. The doctors had no more answers. She had no more fight left. That's when everything changed. Julie is a proven medical intuitive - she appeared on national TV show "The Extraordinary" in 1994 and 1996, where she was filmed demonstrating her ability to see inside people's bodies. For 41 years, she's been developing healing techniques through her modality called AreekeerA (the revolutionary alignment of the physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, auric, energetic and etheric bodies). This conversation isn't just about surviving cancer - it's about the deeper truth of healing that no one talks about. In this episode, Julie reveals: The clairvoyant's prophecy that changed her life at 25 - and the terrifying choice she had to makeWhy she was more afraid of seeing a clairvoyant than facing her failing marriageHow she learned to see inside people's bodies (and got tens of thousands of letters saying "you're my last hope")The vision of gold symbols from the universe that created her healing modalitySurviving two cancers in seven weeks - the radioactive iodine room, the vomiting, the 49kg body that was shutting downThe moment she begged God to let her die - and what happened next that saved her lifeWhy you cannot strategically surrender (and what real surrender actually feels like)The "hamburger bun" visualisation technique that instantly releases scar tissue, tight muscles, and chronic painHer golden light meditation for cleansing your energetic body (do this daily!)Why expecting miracles every day literally creates themThe 940-nanometer infrared frequency in sunlight that heals beyond vitamin DLow expectations + high acceptance = radical healing (what her surgeon friend discovered about cancer patients)Why 10 minutes daily beats 70 minutes weekly - consistency is everythingHow to know when to use conventional medicine vs. alternative healingWhy your inner compass led you to where you are - so it can lead you outThis episode is for you if:✓ You're a leader, entrepreneur, or high-performer seeking deeper alignment and clarity✓ You're already successful but crave more purpose, presence, and inner power✓ You're dealing with chronic illness or pain and feel like you've tried everything✓ You're curious about energy healing, medical intuition, or visualisation techniques✓ You're stuck in strategic thinking and can't figure out how to truly let go✓ You want practical, fun healing techniques you can use immediately✓ You're navigating when to use conventional medicine and when to try alternative approaches✓ You're committed to personal growth and expanding your emotional intelligence✓ You've lost hope and need to remember that miracles are real Julie's story proves that healing yourself isn't about suffering through complicated protocols or two-hour morning routines. It's about small, consistent practices, trusting your inner guidance, and being open to the miraculous - even when (especially when) it comes wrapped in hamburger buns.

    Episode 6: Reignite the Light: A Powerful Story of Resilience, Intuition & Transformational Healing — with Jen Scott

    This episode is for anyone who is committed to their growth -whether you’re healing from past experiences, expanding your emotional intelligence, or already successful and craving deeper clarity, purpose and power. Today, I sit down with the incredible Jen Scott, who shares one of the most transformational personal stories you’ll ever hear. Jen’s journey includes narcissistic abuse, gaslighting, addiction, heroin use, spiritual detours, and moments where she genuinely didn’t know if she wanted to stay alive. But the heart of her story isn’t the darkness - it’s the light she rebuilt from within. This is a conversation about rising. About reclaiming your intuition. About choosing yourself. About trusting your inner world again. And about remembering that no matter how strong, successful or “together” you are… we all have deeper layers to uncover. Whether you’re a leader, parent, entrepreneur, healer, or simply someone who wants to feel more grounded, aligned and powerful - this episode will resonate. In this episode, Jen shares: • What it looked like to be “high-functioning” while silently falling apart • How narcissistic abuse slowly erodes your sense of reality • Why heroin felt like the only time she could feel normal • The suicide attempt that became a pivotal turning point • How traditional mental health systems dismissed and misunderstood her • The spiritual cult she never expected to end up in • The moment she decided to reclaim her power • What transformational NLP revealed that nothing else could • How she rebuilt trust in herself, piece by piece • Why self-awareness is the most powerful practice you can ever develop • Why everything — every pattern, belief, wound — is revisable • The truth about intuition and how to act on it • What she wishes every person (successful or struggling) would ask themselves • Why healing isn’t a finish line — it’s an upward spiral This episode is raw, real, inspiring and deeply human. It will remind you that your inner light never leaves - sometimes it just needs to be reignited.
